If 3,000 boxes were produced for this promo, we will only have:

60 boxes with rare Freddys,
10 with protos and
1 with a signed Pop!

Yeah these odds are way too low for me to take the gamble. Their definition of a "rare freddy" could be a shop exclusive for all we know. The last mystery box from them I went for was when they said they could have the Freddy Genie or Freddy Frankenstein so we knew what we were chasing.
Yes... we're still here! Hoping Fundays 2024 will be my first! :bounce:

I’m in for 2. $20 for 3 pops is decent. Plus it gave me the opportunity to get familiar with the new EQL system. I wonder if they will use it for fundays general sale. And I like the idea that if I’m not lucky and dont get anything I like, at least I can donate them this Christmas and some kids can enjoy them.

I'm very excited to see what folks end up with. I suspect there will be a lot (and I do mean a lot) of opening videos. Just to prove what folks are pulling.

I feel personally attacked, I dont need random pops but I cant fight the gamble.

I might roll the dice and use the excuse of birthdays and holidays coming up, I'm sure my niece loves Zorn.

I had to try, so put in an EQL for 2. Hoping I get something good. At the very least, it gives me a good chance to get into the EQL process for future drops.

Yes, I can remember at least four times but there could be more:

1) Venom
2) Yuletide Freddy
3) Birthday Freddy
4) Bedtime Freddy and Proto

All of those had one guaranteed Pop and then five random ones. I don't remember what was in my Yuletide box (although the Freddy was damaged, so I remember that) but my Bedtime box had the Funko Shop Rocky Maivia, one of the guys from Queer Eye, the ghost of Egon from Ghostbusters, and then two I don't remember.

The in person mystery bags weren't bad, had some hidden gems in them including 1000 piece bitty pops, 500 piece freddys, and random things like die casts. Interested to see what comes out of these, especially with signed pops, protos and rare freddys in the mix.

I alwasy tell my self to buy Sport card singles instead of chasing in packs. But The gambler in me buys the packs anyway. Im in for a box or two. Its always more fun to chase even though its more cost efficient to buy singles.

I went and signed up for 3 boxes. Probably shouldn't have but at least it's better odds than other stores having hundreds of boxes and only 1 or 2 hits

Signed up for 3 as well, my thinking is, im hoping one of the three has something that makes it worth it.

All it takes is one win for you to not be able to say that....maybe this will be the time?

I put in for 3 boxes, we'll see if I get any of them. Could be fun, who knows? Or maybe we all end up with Funko items to donate to friends to pull them into the madness? lol
